For some weeks it was a mystery still ; he could get no clew to any thing. It perplexed him beyond conception. Finally his wife came running down stairs one day, her face flushed and ex cited ; and said to him under ner mi steady breath : "Mr. Capers, have you ever noticed that knot-hole in your study floor?" 44 Whv, no," said he. 44 Where is it and what of it?"

The UftWMi f CImmii Kee

Already, as we have shown, food and clothing have on the average gone baok to ante-war prices, and as oompared with 30 years ago the wages of labor are higher than tho cost of victual and raiment. Still, it is undoubtedly true that working people are not as a rule doing as well now as then, and are neither contented nor saving so much money. Aside from the temporary distress of tho want of employment by largo classes, the increased difliculty of this generation over the former in making both ends meet lies in the pregnant fact that every body is living better now than thouthat the entire range of society has experienced an increase of wants and necessities in tho way of comforts ; that in brief tho wholo scale of living has greatly advanced. Xo family that can go back 25 years and makfa contrast of its habits then and at pTosentwill fail to bo almost startled with tho changes in those respects. A greater variety of food, a greater variety of clothing, a greater variety of amusements, and larger means of education, are in order tho whole scale of social civilization and habit has been pushed forward into now domains. No study either of tho labor or of the social question is intelligent, that does not make chief account of this revolution. No analysis of tho wago question can stand that docs not reeogiiiae both the fact of its existonco and tho necessity of its continuance This increase in the comforts of existence is the gift of machinery and tho great agencies of communication, in cheapening production and multiplying tho means of grace to body and mind. What were luxuries a quarter of a century ago are practical necessities now. Conveniences and indulgences thon rarely attainable or totally unknown havo'become apart of our essential daily comfort; and wo can not put back tho elements of lifoto the old standards,and wo should not try to.

A Httssian battalion at this moment rushed from tho forest, but was coinnletely annihilated by the Turks. Tim Hussians then opened lire from ix lii'ld guns, hidden in tho forest, aud Aziz ordered forward three only in reply, forbidding the second battalion to :ulvance. The whole of his division wan very near, and a Lieutenant-Colonel, m'cing the danger, immediately sounded the clarion for thu division to come up, but the General shot at, and missed him, forgiving orders without his permission. All remained, therefore, behind, fearing to risk tho fury of Aziz Tasini. lUisint bis riding-whip and cracking; it wildly over his head, to whisk away the Hying bullets, as it were, ho rode on to death, receiving a bullet in tho forehead, which killed him.
